Wind and Sun Bring Water to Everyone

Turning to wind and solar-powered water-pumping solutions is the key to providing safe, clean water to rural communities and agriculture. 

Water is one of the scarcest resources in many areas of South Africa, yet so much of our export industry and local economy relies on a steady and safe supply of water to flourish. The southern coast of South Africa has been issuing water scarcity warnings for the past two decades and, although there are moments of relief, the truth is, that there is no guarantee that there will be a sufficient supply of safe, clean water to these areas. Even less so for neighbouring rural villages that might not even have the infrastructure to transport the water from a supply source to their taps, leaving them to rely on highly polluted streams or rivers, and possibly increasing the pollution due to relying on this source of water for all their sanitary needs.

Much like the old-fashioned windmill, Kestrel provides a water-pumping system that relies on the power of wind, and energy stored from the sun, to safely pump underground water to various locations within a community or farming area.

 Delivering up to 3600 Liters of water per hour, depending on how many are relying on the water source, is a cost-effective and sustainable solution to providing much-needed water to farmlands and rural communities. The main benefits of our water pumping solution include:

• Delivers up to 3600 litres/hour
• Heads up to 240m
• More than 400 installations
• Adaptable to your current windmill tower
• Very low maintenance
• Wind alone or wind/solar combination

 Water is a precious commodity across the world, and providing it safely and sustainably should be one of the primary objectives of every person, particularly those who maintain and build our agricultural industry. To request a free quote for a water pumping solution contact us here.
